Apparently Capitol One doesn't have any customer service centers located in non-freezing states. The one time I wish I was just calling to India.

When you wife says lets run to the store, I only need ONE THING. 2 hours later I am finally back home. 1 thing turned into dozens of things.

And she calls you while you're in the store, not grabbing a cart or basket because you were getting only 1 thing. So you end up juggling 20 things trying to make it to the register and get out of there without going back for a cart.

25 year old females using the words walking and exercise in the same sentence. Really ? That's what passes for exercise ?

I guess it depends on how far you walk. Hiking is considered exercise and it's basically just walking uphill.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

Yeah walking is considered exercise if you walk for about an hour or more. A lot of vets at the VA hospital walk for an hour or two around the hospital for exercise. And if you go to any mall during the day before noon, you will see a hell of a lot of senior citizens walking around the mall for exercise. Walking is considered low impact exercise.

Watching video game walkthroughs on YouTube where the person has no idea what they're doing.

Wouldn't that be classified as a 'Blind' play through?

I should have been more specific I guess. I'm talking about people who act like they are about to turn their life around because they started making a few laps around the park every day.

Also, there's a distinct difference between hiking and just walkin around a park and a mall. Of course walking is considered a big deal for anyone with any complications/disabilities or someone who may be older.

I'm just thinking about how little I would get out of walking at the age of 25 with no medical conditions preventing me from even a light jog.

Oh well, it's just a gear grinder of mine.

Probably. But it's even worse when the game tells you what to do and you still have major issues.

I'm watching a guy play Amazing Spider-Man 2, and he got webbing that eats away metal. The game says it's the only way to beat enemies with armor. He continues playing and not a single time does he shoot webs at armored enemies. He keeps doing melee attacks, and can't figure out why they aren't working.

I think I get what you are saying as far as gear grinders go but taking walks regardless of age is still exercise.

You are thinking of it in terms of age but maybe someone who's 25 can't go for a jog on their hour lunch break and the only exercise they can get is taking a walk.

I work with plenty of people who have kids and families and their only time to get any exercise whatsoever is during their lunch and it's not quite feasible to get a full workout plus lunch plus a shower in that timeframe so they have to walk around.

Add in OCD when someone won't pick up an item a monster/enemy drops .

Little kids on GTA online.

90% because where is their parent and what are they thinking?

10% because they're way better than me and they know it too.

I agree with you completely on the parent thing. The game is rated M for a good damn reason. If ESRB wanted these 7 year old kids playing GTA they would pressure a company into making Driver again.

Apparently they just shut down when it drops below 32*.

I'm sure if I wanted to open a new loan they would take my call, but since I am wanting to pay one off they just don't give a ****.
